Ответ:
5x + y = 25
Dillon can buy 25 flowers.
Dillon can buy 5 trees
Step-by-step explanation:
Equations
The standard form of a linear equation is:
ax + by = c
Where a, b, and c are constants, and x, y are the variables.
Given the conditions of the problem, we'll build the equation that represents the situation.
Let's call:
x=number of trees
y=number of flowers
Since the landscaping company sells trees for $25 each and flowers for $5 each, buying x trees and y flowers cost:
25x+5y dollars
Knowing Dillon has $125 to spend, then:
25x + 5y = 125
Dividing by 5:
5x + y = 25
This is the equation that models the situation.
If Dillon decides to buy only one type of plant, then the other must be set to zero.
If he buys only flowers, then x=0. Solving for y:
5(0) + y = 25
y = 25
Dillon can buy 25 flowers.
If he buys only trees, then y=0. Solving for x:
5x + 0 = 25
x = 5
Dillon can buy 5 trees
